Conversations With a 4-Year-Old

Scene: Ext. On Boardwalk by Berliner Dom. (Morning)

It's a blustery morning as the intrepid mother and her two children make their way to Museum Island for a little sightseeing. The boardwalk area lends itself to some running about, so the mother unlocks the kids and let's them lose to expend some energy. After 20 minutes, Leah plants herself on a bench. 

Leah: "Hey Mom! I think I see an ice cream stand over there!"



Mom: "No ice cream, Leah. It's 9:30 in the morning!" 
(No surprise, the pursuit of ice cream has been Leah's main vocation on this trip.)


Leah: "Uh! Oh Mom"
(Why does she always say no?!")

End Scene. 
Fade Out.
